University Of Oregon Unionizing Interview

The effort to unionize the University of Oregon’s faculty is gaining momentum.

Proponents have begun passing out cards for supporters to sign as they seek endorsements from faculty members not yet involved in the push for unionization. 

The faculty need to collect at minimum fifty percent approval from within the proposed bargaining unit, which means they need around one thousand signatures.

KBOO’s Sarina Fong spoke with Michael Dreiling (dry-ling), an associate professor of sociology at the University of Oregon.
